Another Bird Point
« on: April 18, 2010, 02:58:14 am »
I was tryin to make another bird point tonight but when I was tryin to make the notches in it I snapped it. So I went and squared off the end and just made little notches in it this time. It is the one in the middle there, the other 2 I already posted ones before. The 2 black ones are flint. What do you guys think, is it small enough?

That's more like a Blowgun point.

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

More like a pellet for a BB gun...
Time, dedication, cuts, tons of broken rock, a wife, and perhaps a few girlfriends are some of what it takes in becoming a skilled flint knapper!!!
